Mediterranean Revival Specialists
Coral Gables design code requires Mediterranean Revival vocabulary: barrel-tile roofs, smooth stucco, mahogany doors, wrought-iron details. We work within this code rather than against it, delivering renovations that look like they belong on a 1925 Merrick block.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need Board of Architects approval to remodel?
Yes for any exterior change including windows, roof, paint color, and patio extensions. Interior-only work usually skips the Board but still goes through Building Division review.
Can I change my barrel-tile roof to a metal roof?
Almost never. Coral Gables design code requires Mediterranean Revival roof materials: barrel clay or concrete tile in approved earth tones. We can re-tile with newer impact-rated equivalents.
How long does the Coral Gables permit process take?
8-12 weeks from first submittal to permit issuance for typical renovation, assuming Board of Architects approval is clean. Historic preservation cases add 4-6 weeks.
Are window replacements possible in historic homes?
Yes — but replacements must match the original profile, divided-light pattern, and material category. Impact-rated wood-clad aluminum is the most common approved replacement. Vinyl is not permitted.
